Heroku install URL broken? Error during install

[Ari Brown]

I love the plugin and have been using it in several of our rooms. Recently, when I install from the heroku descriptor (https://hc-standup.herokuapp.com), I get the following error:

This doesn't affect rooms where I already had it installed, but since last week and continuing now I can't install it elsewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hm...I just installed it on hipchat.com and can't find any evidence of that error in our server logs. Are you installing on hipchat.com or your own hosted HipChat?

[Ari Brown]

Our own server, and FWIW, it's running Hipchat v1.2 build 1.2.6. Any sandboxed local installs up that you can text against? No idea how to debug these messages but I know it worked until recently, and I know I'd love to have it work again - thanks for the quick response!

[Don Brown]

I checked and that new role, view_rooms, isn't available on 1.2.6, but is on the latest supported version of 1.3.1. You can either upgrade your BTF HipChat (preferred) or fork this addon and run it locally with the view_room changed to view_group.

Perfect – I’ll see if I can get our admins to upgrade it. Is there any additional value in the new change that I can point out?

Looks like lots of stuff: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/HC/HipChat+Server+Release+Notes

Generally speaking, I think this product is pretty aggressive on pushing you to upgrade, so if you want support, then you'll need to do the upgrade often.

Problem retrieving capabilities descriptor at https://hc-standup.herokuapp.com: Failed to validate field 'webPanel' list schema: "Value {u'value': u'Standup reports'} for field 'name' is not of type 'string'"

I get the above error message when installing on 1.3 build 1.3.1 (2015.08.14.012052). Any idea what's going on ?

[Julien Michel Hoarau]

This issue was caused by an incompatibility between the latest version of the addon and HipChat Server. I've released a new version backward compatible with HipChat Server.

Sorry about this.

@julienhoarau thank you very much for the quick fix :)
